Norton Consultants Pty Ltd is currently seeking to employ a Control Systems Engineer with LV Controls and DCS/PLC/SCADA system design and configuration experience to join our growing team. Based in our office in Melbourne, Australia, occasional travel to all corners of Australasia and parts of the Pacific region may be required.

The successful candidate should meet the following requirements:

* Bachelor of Engineering degree (Electrical) and qualifications acceptable for Graduate entry to the Institution of Engineers, Australia (IEAust).
I can (probably) do that
* Minimum 2 years experience in an industrial environment.
I doubt that you'll consider spraying Gel Coat at my Dad's fiberglass shop to count.
* Resident in, or hold permits to live and work in, Australia.
nope
* Be a self-motivated team player.
Others may disagree with the 'team player' part, but sure!
* Be experienced with trouble-shooting, configuring and programming of DCS, PLC and SCADA hardware and software (CitectSCADA an advantage).
What's 'SCADA' again?
* Have an above-average understanding of control system design strategies.
I wrote the book (well at least _a_ book, and it won't hit the presses for another month so I can't say anything about favorable reviews).
* Able to design and trouble-shoot industrial communication systems.
I've written comm software for various 8-, 16- and 32-bit microcontrollers, does that count?
* Have a good working knowledge of low-voltage electrical control and distribution systems.
You probably mean in an industrial setting, not in a 4-box airborne imaging system, don't you?

This position would ideally suit a Graduate Electrical Engineer with an interest in Aviation and Aircraft Refuelling systems, currently working for a major petrochemical or heavy industry company and wishing to expand his/her horizons across a variety of clients and industries both large and small. A salary package of up to A$75,000 will be negotiated with the successful candidate.

That's _all_? No wonder you have to look so hard.

If you, or anyone you know, may be interested in this position, please send a brief resume and contact details to me at the address below.

Thanks and regards,

All in all I suspect I'm better qualified for designing PCS's and DCS's, with their accompanying auto-tune software, than I am for speccing industrial control systems. This has more to do with the fact that all my experience pertains to itty bitty clean things (well, except for the diesel speed control) than it does to any root knowledge, I'm sure.

But thanks for asking.

Geez I'm in a weird mood today...
